My final A-Z Blog challenge post is about zombies. Believe me, I never thought I would ever be writing about zombies, but they seem to be all the rage now. I decided that I needed to see what all the fuss was about so I read Pay Me In Flesh by K. Bennent (aka James Scott Bell).
Until I read this book, my only knowledge of zombies was from watching the movie, Shaun of the Dead and I laughed through the whole thing.
What I didn't do was laugh through this book. Pay Me In Flesh is about a lawyer in Los Angeles who finds, after being shot, that she was brought back from the dead and is now a zombie, or undead. While defending a vampire on a murder charge, she searches for the person who turned her into a zombie.
The end of the book left a lot of unresolved issues, enough that I assume there will be a sequel. The story was very well written, but I would expect no less from Mr. Scott, who is an excellent writer. I did find a few typos in the text, but not so many that it distracted my reading.
I asked myself if I would read another zombie book and my answer is maybe. If there is a sequel, I will likely read it, but I doubt I would add another zombie book to my library.
How about you? Do you like to read zombie books?

ReplyDeleteThe only zombie book I ever wanted to read, did read, and adored, is Charmaine Clancy's middle grade MY ZOMBIE DOG. I loved SHAUN OF THE DEAD, but MY ZOMBIE DOG just tickled me in all the right places. :)
